Senator Rick Scott said, “The generation coming of age today has inherited Washington’s failures and are paying for them every day. They’re walking into a world where the starter home their parents bought doesn’t exist for them anymore. They’re abandoning the idea of having children because they simply cannot afford it. More young Americans following socialists like Zohran Mamdani because the status quo has failed and they’re desperate for change. We must be clear that socialism isn’t the answer. It will kill the American Dream.” “I put together a project with one goal: to be honest with the American public about how our economy has drastically changed, how the American Dream is out of reach for so many, and most importantly - how we can fix it. Socialism will destroy America if we let it take root. If we don’t act now, the American Dream will not exist for young people today, our kids, or our grandkids.” “Stay tuned.” # # # https://www.rickscott.senate.gov/2026/9/sen-rick-scott-announces-project-to-tackle-america-s-cost-of-living-crisis
